Therefore
, many researchers and consumers have looked at alternative sources of

 and have found that solar

 has many benefits and few drawbacks. The main advantage of solar

 is that after the initial installation, it is entirely free and renewable, and there are no extra costs involved in producing the

. Solar
energy
 is silent and environmentally friendly as well it does not destroy or poison the ecosystem.
This
 is because the raw material; sunshine, does not need to be extracted or refined, so there are no pollutants or toxic residue produced. Another major advantage is that it is produced where it is needed so there is no

In addition

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
